After a slowdown in April 2013, when annual effective rent growth appeared to be headed below 3.0%, the growth rate increased for the second consecutive month in June. For the month, annual effective rent growth measured 3.51% while the occupancy rate increased 41 basis points (bps) from its level a year ago. Despite the recent slowing trend in effective rent growth at the national level, growth rates continued to rise from May to June, even with the approximately 70,000 units that have already been delivered nationally this year.

All three asset classes (A, B, and C) increased effective rent growth from May to June.
